Factors associated with incomplete tuberculosis preventive treatment: a retrospective analysis of six-years programmatic data in Cambodia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) preventive treatment (TPT) effectively prevents the progression from TB infection to TB disease. This study explores factors associated with TPT non-completion in Cambodia using 6-years programmatic data (2018-2023) retrieved from the TB Management Information System (TB-MIS). Out of 14,262 individuals with latent TB infection (LTBI) initiated with TPT, 299 (2.1%) did not complete the treatment. Individuals aged between 15-24 and 25-34 years old were more likely to not complete the treatment compared to those aged < 5 years old, with aOR = 1.7, p = 0.034 and aOR = 2.1, p = 0.003, respectively. Individuals initiated with 3-month daily Rifampicin and Isoniazid (3RH) or with 6-month daily Isoniazid (6H) were more likely to not complete the treatment compared to those initiated with 3-month weekly Isoniazid and Rifapentine (3HP), with aOR = 2.6, p < 0.001 and aOR = 7, p < 0.001, respectively. Those who began TPT at referral hospitals were nearly twice as likely to not complete the treatment compared to those who started the treatment at health centers (aOR = 1.95, p = 0.003). To improve TPT completion, strengthen the treatment follow-up among those aged between 15 and 34 years old and initiated TPT at referral hospitals should be prioritized. The national TB program should consider 3HP the first choice of treatment.
